    And don't forget the 70's! Drove coastal highway 101 Oregon to San Diego, Tijuana both junior senior high school years with surf board in truck.. ) Then 1975 decided to tour the great USA working few weeks here an there. Traded the Ford 4x for lil Datson pickup....Settled in Boulder Colorado after a month, which was hopping back then...Stephen Stills, Dan Fogelberg, others played few clubs...Roommate was professional bull rider. At 20 adventured to Alaska for 39yrs. Great times in both. Average age Boulder, Anchorage was 26.

    What found little strange, was 2 high school pals in Oregon were both (became) the largest companies in construction field in Anchorage, the State... small world.
